The 2009 holidays will go down in history as one of the first where mobile advertising and marketing was integrated in overall media plans. This free webinar tracks mobile�s progress over the holidays, lessons learned and best practice for 2010.

Based on banner-ad click-throughs and SMS responses, as well as the use of mobile for research, search, shopping, price-comparing and even buying, it was clear that the medium has come of age.

Several brands ran mobile display and SMS campaigns, some to entice consumers to stores or online with new merchandise, others to offer discounts for holiday items.

Mobile Web activity also increased in the entertainment, consumer packaged goods, restaurants, fast food and dating categories.
